JODIE Marsh has become the surprise contender to be the next breakthrough WWE star after tweeting her desire to become a professional wrestler.

The 39-year-old star, who has carved her body into fighting fit shape after years as a bodybuilder, was left inspired by wrestlers after watching them in action in Camden’s Electric Ballroom on Saturday night.

Shortly after attending PROGRESS Wrestling's 'Chapter 60: Unboxing Live! 2' event, she revealed that not only does she want to take on the new challenge, but she has a signature style and nickname already picked out.

She tweeted: "So I went to my first ever wrestling show today! It was @ThisIs_Progress and I loved it.

"I've decided I want to be a female wrestler but I need to be a red head again and I shall call myself simply "Red"."

The star later hit back at a fan who thought she wouldn’t be able to compete in the ring, and told them: “Yes cos I'm known for being really weak and pathetic ... mate I'm not sure you know anything about me but if I want to do something I don't stop til I win. Literally win. (sic)"

PROGRESS Wrestling was founded in Camden in 2012, and has gone on to form a working partnership with WWE, which saw the company represented at 'WrestleMania 33' in Florida as part of the Fan Axxess event.

At Saturday’s event, Jodie saw top British performers like Joe Coffee and Will Ospreay, while the main event saw WWE United Kingdom Champion Pete Dunne battle WWE 205 Live star Jack Gallagher, who made his name in Progress before moving to the US.

Jodie’s potential new venture comes after she boasted she was in better shape than ever ahead of her 39th birthday in December.

She took to Instagram to show off her tanned six-pack and promote her nutrition range, writing: "At nearly 39 years old my body is better than when I was 23."

She shocked fans with her most drastic body transformation in 2012, dropping from a size 10 to a size six in just eight weeks by following a strict diet and cutting out alcohol.

At the time, she said: "This is the best I've ever felt, and the best my body has ever felt too."
